JEE Main 2022 Session 1 Exam Clashed With Board Exam 

As per NTA, a large section of JEE Main 2022 applicants have urged the authorities to make necessary changes in the exam schedule. The request came due to the clash of board exam dates with engineering entrance exams. 

CBSE Class 12th Board 2022 exam is scheduled to be held from April 26, 2022. The JAC 12th Board Term II exam will be held from March 24, 2022, to April 2022. Due to this, students are unable to prepare for the JEE Main examination. 

Earlier, JAC Board Exam 2022 registered candidates had requested the examination board to look into this matter. Furthermore, concerned parents and students also reached out to NTA to request revisions in the exam schedule or allow more attempts for the same. 

Referring to the clash of JAC Board Exam 2022 date with JEE Main, students tweeted: “JEE Main 2022 dates are collapsing with state boards (Jharkhand) date. I request our education minister and NTA to look into this matter and reshuffle the date of JEE Main 2022 (1st attempt)”.

JEE Main 2022 Registration Open till March 31

As of now, JEE Main 2022 registration is open for both April and May 2022 sessions at nta.nic.in.
